In Depth: Baseball's Angriest Players

No. 1: Milton Bradley

Chicago Cubs, Outfielder

Ejections since 2000: 17

Bradley is the kind of player who breaks the hearts of management, teammates and fans. He’s undeniably skilled, but his career has been stunted by his hot-headedness. In 2007 he tore his ACL when his manager, Bud Black, tried to restrain him as he argued with an umpire. In 2008 he ran wildly from the clubhouse to try to confront a TV analyst who had said something negative about him (he was intercepted by his manager and general manager). This year, he bumped an umpire in April and had a confrontation with Cubs manager, Lou Piniella, which made national news.
